Let’s hope we haven’t put all our eggs in 1 basket with Hackney 11:50 - Jul 28 with 3265 viewsDamster

So with the season starting in under 2 weeks and the team in desperate need of another CM, it would be amazing if we can pull a deal for Hackney.
My concern is a prem side will take a low risk punt and essentially muscle us out.
Hopefully we have some other targets in mind as running out of road to get this vital slot replaced.

I'm reading between the lines and thinking we're coming to a conclusion with this... either he signs for us OR a PL clubs swoops in. If it drags into another week I can see the concern.
My big concern is that I'm thinking Kalvin Phillips hasn't been snapped up yet on loan and we didn't learn our lesson enough.

If Kalvin is best we can do for now and he is willing to take a serious pay cut then I'll take that over nothing.

Fingers crossed we don't need to. But am sure a fit KP would be a massive asset in the Championship.

Still waiting to see what happens with Cajuste too - that hasn't been resolved as far as I can see.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's quite likely there's more than one player on our list of potential CM signings.

I'm all but certain we are only talking to Hackney and if it doesn't come off then Ashton will have to boot up Football Manager to identify someone new and start over again with negotiations.

We have a few more eggs to play with this season.

Plus we still get to loan other people eggs.

i would assume hes a top target if not at the top they might take time but i also suspect there are other targets under him who we can move for if it doesnt happen, but i expect us to know this week whether it happens or not.

Thanks for posting, but this is literally 100% speculation. Zero source or substance.

It'd be like Phil posting an article saying we're after Isak to give Hirst an occasional rest.

Why would it be low risk? With the transfer fee and rumoured wage on offer, any deal won’t exactly be cheap even for a PL club. Plus, over the course of any contract, he will take up a squad space.

Not exactly low risk.

This could have so easily been a really positive post about the intent shown signing one of the best young talents outside of the Premier League!

The clubs has a plan it certainly does not have 1 CM on it.

There are a lot more loan players allowed in this division, usually from Prem' clubs and younger. These don't normally get concluded until later.
I hope we don't load up on loans unless they have a reasonable buy option but we will no doubt add a couple more at some point.

I still feel Jen’s will end up here, but it will be late in the transfer window once he has seen all his possibilities.
